Welcome and Step Inside...
...Have a cup of tea, sit in the comfy chair and put your feet up. Now tell me what you do to get your creative ya-yas going. Are you a painter? A sculptor, a jewelry maker? Do you mosaic, sew or saw? Stained Glass, Birdhouses or clay? Or do you create with words? Do you conjure poetry or regale fairytales?
This blogsite is dedicated to art and artists. My art, your art, Aunt Sophie's art. So let me know what fills the belly of your soul.

Goodbye and Hello

Day of The Dead Shrine - my first project in my reclaimed Studio.

It has been a while since I have posted anything on this blog. I seem to have outgrown it. I started this blog originally to help promote selling my beadwork on Etsy and to keep in touch with other beady types. But I have grown a bit and I'm flexing my wings differantly, so it is time to start a new blog. It is called Cenya 600 and in it I will be discussing inspirationsl bits about lots of differant types of artisan crafting and art. I still make and sell beadwork, but I sell much more at our local Saturday Market than I ever did on Etsy. I have made many friends in the art world and it has helped me to move into new territory which I find very stimulating. In addition, I have finished painting the studio and have moved all of my art supplies back in there (except for my beading, which stays in the beadroom inside the house). So I now have a very inspirational place to create all types of art.
I think you will like the expanded interests - not just beading anymore - and I invite you all to come follow me there. This will be my last post on Emerald Window. It has been a wonderful ride with all of you and I hope it continues on Cenya 600.
